Will all be great players for their clubs. Lets hope Hogan is the next Carey.

I would like to think if our draft/trade period goes alright he will/should struggle to get a game.

The Riddler from Batman?

I will take your word for it, too long ago for me, watched to much footy since then.

It's a valid point, has he got a fast, free flowing attacking gameplan? All going well we will have a number of forward options. Is he bringing a gameplan to suit.

Robbo showed his true colours and non worth as a journalist during the bombers saga.

I get the feeling Jack has already agreed verbally to join Malthouse, now he might be trying to get out of it.

Was at the game, he stands over six foot, had his arm/elbow tucked in. If anything a tad late, watched the replay several times and I think he should get off. Malcheski wasn't head over the ball running front on to Franklin it was side on contact. But the way the game has gone ie Ziebell, he will cop some time.

Get the stickers printed now.

So Watts is still going?

It would be in the best interst of all concerned.

"He wish he had known what was actually going on". He is a grub.

When one player said "no I'm not being injected" the others would have been aware of this. Younger plays would have been overwhelmed by the Hird aura, the players should have asked questions.

and a bucket if soy sauce. Quote unquote "Bargeass"

Nice work Theo.

Was offline but I think we now have answer.

The technicality is/will be Watson "thought" he was given it. I think your right in saying WADA can ban any player/s found in breach. WADA don't care about our TV rights deal , Lance Armstong found out the hard way and he also never tested positive.

Would be happy with that though I feel they may want pick 9 for Daisy and give us Yarren for Watts. I personally don't want Yarren. Interesting trade period ahead.

Leave the picks out then, Watts for Swallow.

Not sure, would have thought restricted if anything.

Hold on, Chappy has size about him, Hawkins is naturally a big boy, Bartell is stocky but all achievable in the gym, Selwood is tough and courageous but by no means big. Scarlett, Harley, Mooney, Ling, Enright, Corey, Taylor, even bloody Ottens to me and I'm no expert but am also no stranger to a gym are average weight for height in terms of an AFL footballers body. Also aren't these substances in question designed to aid in recovery allowing the body to be pushed harder. Essendon aren't a big bodied team in general. In Hirds and Bombers first year together they said (before all this crap broke) we wanted to see how far we could push the players.

Look at Freo, when the opposition has the ball they have 18 taggers in the face of their opponents.

Fair call , Danger had 21 touches and 5 tackles. Every player should at least be able to make 1 tackle a qtr. Regardless we have seen Jordie's best and in my opinion it's not good enough. I'm aware he never gives up and has great endeavour and is probably loved by all at the club, but if we are to move forward we need to make these decisions. Next year I want Jones, Viney and the mid we trade for starting in the guts. Toumpas on a wing and Trengrove on the other. Let our mids play man on man and become accountable.

No he's not. So his job is to shut down players yet could only manage two tackles yesterday. I didn't watch the game but can only assume he ran in circles. Thompson killed us. He couldn't even average 1 tackle a qtr. If your disposal is as poor as his you need to bring something. No attacking mindset, a good tagger hurts teams going the other way, he doesn't/can't do this. I thought the job on Ablett was a combined effort. He's had plenty of chances, he must only be a depth player until his contract runs out.

Your right mate, the other thing that stinks is at the start I thought they said come clean now and we can talk or wait to be caught and have the book thrown at you. At no stage has Hird volunteered anything, all we here is we will answer to any allegations. To me that reeks of "ok they know we took a , b & c but if we if play our cards right they won't find out about d, e & f.
